“the talent pipeline has slowed to a trickle,” he said. “The question is ‘How do we help revitalize it?’”

I still can’t get over the fact that this generation of Taco is only going to be 7 years. Don’t get me wrong, I owned a ‘16 for three years, and didn’t particularly like it, but these things typically move 1 decade at a time.

No helipad on his yacht? Lame!

BYD is a Warren Buffet deal so they must have some smarts. 

How are you going to be buying presents for people when you can’t afford the things you have?

I did repo for a while and most people know you are coming for the car. You mostly pull up around 1-2 am and hook it up, the knock on the door and ask if they want to get their stuff out. Maybe 85-90% of the people were cool. But that last 10-15% was the reason people stop doing it.

IIRC Teslas can go 5 MPH over the speed limit, but that’s it. And that was due to people complaining that FSD was too slow.

Make it rain? Nah, make it hail!

it is extremely foolish how we design autonomous vehicles now; the idea that each vehicle needs to be a supercomputer with AI accelerated logic is an egregious waste of energy and resources.

Yeah, camp grounds within one day’s drive of NYC fill up months in advance...

Mine was a 93 XJ with a mild lift, manual locking front hubs, Ford 8.8 swap (LSD & disk brakes). It was cheap to put together, great on road, and amazing off-road. Well, at least until the trails went to shit.

Where you riding at? I got out of off-roading a while ago. Mostly because all the trails in the Appalachia area(where Mr Regular is at) turned to shit so fast. Was around 2010 when I finally threw in the towel. Mostly because every knuckledragger just smashes the loud pedal at every mud hole & hill they come across. I…

Tell me you know nothing about Mr. Regular without telling me you know nothing about him.

I love the environment, too, which is why I stay in the city where my presence causes less damage (we go camping twice a year, though). This is not meant to criticize people who do enjoy getting out there, but if those of us who like the urban environment stay in the cities I think that will be a net benefit for the…

The panel gaps caught my attention long before the hail damage

The Del Sol did come out with the B-Series Motor in 94 I believe but was labeled the VTEC model not the Si model.

RCR is a national treasure.

I’ve seen this show before… it’s boring.

My grandma drove till about 95 and she called herself a leadfoot. She was :)

I want to take a ride with your wife!
